Leveraging technology for the treatment of type 1 diabetes in pregnancy: A review of past, current, and future therapeutic tools
利用技术治疗妊娠期1型糖尿病:过去、现在和未来治疗手段的综述
- Pages: 714-732
- First Published: 03 March 2020

Highlights
- The management of T1D in pregnancy has been enhanced in large part due to development of more effective glucose monitoring and insulin delivery systems.
- CGM has been demonstrated to improve glycemic control and minimize excursions in pregnant mothers and leads to better neonatal outcomes.
- CSII has often led to better maternal glycemic control; however, outcome data for its use in pregnancy remain mixed.
- Further research evaluating newer and upcoming technologies in this understudied population is needed.
Current situation of clinical islet transplantation from allogeneic toward xenogeneic
从临床异体胰岛移植向异种胰岛移植发展的现状
- Pages: 733-741
- First Published: 04 April 2020

Highlights
- Allogeneic islet transplantation has been developed for unstable type 1 diabetic patients to stabilize the blood glucose levels and prevent hypoglycemia, and donor shortage is the most serious issue.
- To alleviate the donor shortage issue, non-heart-beating donor and living donors were used and to solve the donor shortage issue porcine islets have been used for islet transplantation.
- Recent new technologies including CRISPR and blastocyst complementation should improve the efficacy of islet xenotransplantation.

ORIGINAL ARTICLES
Current status of metformin in addition to insulin therapy in adult patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus: An analysis from the Guangdong Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus Translational Medicine Study
二甲双胍联合胰岛素治疗在成人1型糖尿病患者中的使用现状:一项来自广东省1型糖尿病转化医学研究项目的分析
- Pages: 754-760
- First Published: 10 February 2020

Highlights
- This is the first study to explore the current status and efficacy of additional metformin therapy in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) under real-life conditions in China.
- Metformin is initiated more in T1DM patients with dyslipidemia or higher body mass index in current practice in China.
- Additional metformin has no effect on glycemic control, but it helps maintain body weight and reduce insulin dosage in adult patients with T1DM.
Frequency, clinical characteristics, and determinants of partial remission in type 1 diabetes: Different patterns in children and adults
儿童及青少年与成人1型糖尿病患者蜜月期的发生率、临床特征及影响因素不同
- Pages: 761-768
- First Published: 06 April 2020

Highlights
- About two-thirds of all age patients with T1D underwent PR phase, and juvenile-onset patients are more likely to have PR during the disease course.
- Age of onset and the male sex were correlated with the frequency of PR in children; while the related factors in adults were initial HbA1c and C-peptide levels.
- Baseline onset age was positively correlated with the duration of PR in children with T1D.
